I am trying to install ez-ipupdate. This will allow me to use dynamic dns from home. The configure went okay. When I did make the following errors occured:

make
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -g -O2 -c ez-ipupdate.c
ez-ipupdate.c: In function 'main':
ez-ipupdate.c:4559: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast

Hoping you can give me some insight.

thanks

You can download it here
There are example config files at /etc/ez-ipupdate

okay I did an install of package. Thanks for doing that, but I would like to know what the error message was saying. That way I learn and the next time can solve it myself.

thanks again - just great support from you.

The file I uploaded was an already compile package from slackware 9, but ez-ipupdate has nothing special and it's an old program to recompile...
If you like to recompile it your self, just for the fun of it...
replace in conf_file.c

extern int errno;
with
#include </usr/include/errno.h>

and do
Code:
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install

And here a slackbuild for not messing up your system.

Code:
#!/bin/bash

EZ=ez-ipupdate
VERSION="-3.0.11b7"
PKG=/tmp/package

if [ -f $EZ$VERSION.tar.gz ]; then
echo package found
else
wget http://ez-ipupdate.com/dist/ez-ipupdate-3.0.11b7.tar.gz
fi


rm -rf $PKG
mkdir -p $PKG

echo untar archive
tar -xf $EZ$VERSION.tar.gz
cd $EZ$VERSION
sed -e "s,extern int errno;,#include </usr/include/errno.h>,g" -i conf_file.c
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install DESTDIR=$PKG
cd $PKG
makepkg -l y -c n $EZ$VERSION.tgz
echo Slackware package $EZ$VERSION.tgz is on $PKG

bear with me for being dense:

does this build just build a package and then you have to install it?

Or does it install it as well?

Just build the package, you 'll have to install it yourself with 'installpkg' command.
If you change
make install DESTDIR=$PKG
to
make install
and remove the rest of the lines bellow you will have a script that install the package only.
It's wise to create packages, it's easier to manage applications that way.

thanks. That's what I thought but just now learning to read scripts. I definitely see why it makes since to create a package.

thanks again
